Communication is More Than Words

Communication is really more than just words! You've probably heard the phrase: "behavior is communication". And this is so true. So much of communication is non-verbal. We communicate every day without words: our gestures, facial expressions, body language. There are many ways to communicate non-verbally. Babies are no different. They communicate long before they begin talking. How they communicate can be by smiling, making sounds, pointing or even the super fun crying and screaming tantrums parents love so much. Recognizing how and why your child communicates is important so you can respond to these hidden messages.
